I love the area NW of INL. Again, are you staying in the camper? Or just doing weekend excursions? Some thoughts follow:
1) It has been really wet here this winter. There will be a bumper crop of mosquitos anywhere near water. That will include a bunch of river flats in the valleys to the north. I think the RV park in Arco is a great site to stay at if you need it for the month. Don't know the cost.
2) Seek an opportunity for altitude. It really is cooler and temps drop quickly in the evening. One of my favorite spots is Meadow Lake, which is north of INL near Gilmore. 26 degrees at night on July 2nd! 9000 ft. Here is a pic:

Get an Idaho Gazetteer or Delorme atlas and explore the NF campgrounds and BLM sites. Incredible scenery. Feel free to contact me for more info.
